*Final prize fund: £1560

Watch the video explainer!
What is it?
A poem has been written with words from St Helens road names. A book of photographs shows the street signs and their surroundings but with the names removed. You have to work out what the streets are, and complete the poem to solve the puzzle.
How does it work?
The first person, family or group to submit a correctly completed book with all the right answers wins. The prize is the total of the book sales until a winner is found, with a guaranteed minimum of £1,000 and a maximum of £6,000 if all 1,000 books are sold at £6 each. The more money we receive the bigger the prize pot gets. You can buy as many books as you want, and complete a book with friends/family if you prefer.
To win, you need to give us your copy of the book with all the blank signs clearly filled in correctly, and the poem completed too.
You must be over 18 to enter.
